Main Event of the Evening: Light Heavyweight Division: Sean Carter Willams (3-0-0) vs. Kimmo Susitunturi (2-1-0)
(The Fight)
Round 1:
As the main event starts the two fighters touch gloves and get the action underway. And as Williams lands his first punch on the head of Kimmo blood starts to appear as Kimmo is cut already. Williams continues to land shot after shot trying to aim at the cut and the cut becomes worse as one punch knocks Kimmo to the ground. Williams smiles as he mouths ''Bring it on'' and Kimmo stands back up. But he stands up only to be knocked back down again by a brutal uppercut that causes Kimmo's mouthpiece to fly outside the cage. This fight is all over as Sean Carter Williams wins again in dominating fashion. He made sure to thank his fans for their support and he looks very confident after his win.
Winner by KO (Punch): Sean Carter Williams (4-0-0)

Co-Main Event: Middleweight Division: Krzysiu "Saint" Jarzyna (0-0-0) vs. Simon "The Underwolf" Kempny (1-0-0)
(The Fight)
Round 1:
The Co-Main event begins and Jarzyna is quick to go for the clinch and he quickly looks to start dishing a lot of punishment. And Jarzyna does so for the better part of two minutes as he lands punches in bunches to both the body and the face of Kempny and it looks to take a lot out of the tank of Kempny. Kempny manages to break the clinch but Jarzyna is like a magnet managing to immediately clinch again and the punishment continues. And after another two minutes of dominating clinch action Jarzyna manages to hit a big right that causes Kempny to fall flat on his ass. Jarzyna follows up going to the ground feeling he can finish it but Kempny manages to stay alive until the referee orders the fight to get back up the feet. But Jarzyna is like a dog fighting for his bone and he gets back in the clinch and drives Kempny with his back against the cage and he manages to dish more pain until the bell rings to end the round. Jarzyna totally dominated that round from start to finish and Kempny looked like a punching bag out there...
Round 2:
Round 2 and it starts with a clinch as Jarzyna gets the fight where he wants it and the suffering continues for Kempny as Jarzyna continues with punches in bunches and in the second minute the sandman cometh around as Jarzyna lands a sick uppercut to the chin of Kempny which causes him to crumble to the ground completely unconscious. Jarzyna runs around the cage holding his hands up high as he celebrates his completely decimation of Simon Kempny and he has reason to be happy with it as Kempny never had a chance!
Winner by KO (Punch)): Krzysiu Jarzyna (1-0-0)

Fight Eight: Lightweight Division: "Hollywood" Thomas Wade (1-0-0) vs. Anzor Azhiev (0-0-0)
(The Fight)
Round 1:
The fight starts and Wade counters a takedown with a takedown himself and the fight is on the ground much to the joy of Thomas Wade. Both fighters try to get in a better position and it makes for an exiting battle on the ground but both cancel each other out and after a while the referee stands the fight back up. Wade counters another takedown with his own takedown and the fight quickly reaches the ground again as Wade looks to pass but again nothing much happens so Wade tries a punch or two to keep Azhiev guessing. In the struggle Azhiev manages to get on top though and now he looks for a heel hook but Wade is too active and he counters it and gets back into top guard. Wade looks for a Kimura but it fails but he manages to keep control and he is starting to throw more punches in an attempt to soften up his opponent. Azhiev tries to look for a sweep for the rest of the fight but Wade keeps control until the bell rings. Thomas Wade is clearly the winner of this round as he held control for the majority of the round.
Round 2:
The second round starts as Wade fakes a punch and follows up with a shoot takedown getting half guard and he immediately tries a Guillotine from the top but he fails to lock it in. Azhiev works hard to get into a better position as he wiggles into full guard much to the dismay of Wade's corner. Both fighters are doing their best to get into the better position on the ground and the crowd seems to love it as they both try submissions to no avail. Later on in the round Wade gets into Side control and he manages to throw very good strikes from this position as he works over Azhiev. And close to the end of the round he manages to slip into the full mount and Wade is going bam-bam on the face of Azhiev as he lands big shots on the button. But Azhiev manages to survive until the bell rings and Wade looks dissapointed at not finishing it off, but he has certainly won this round with ease.
Round 3:
The last round and Azhiev tries to shoot for a takedown but Wade jumps to the side and throws Azhiev to the ground with his own takedown getting into Full Mount in the process. And Wade is throwing bombs here and the ref runs in as he pulls Wade away as this fight is over! Thomas Wade looks ecstatic as he makes sure to wear his UFG cap whilst doing his jumping splits! Thomas Wade completely dismantled Azhiev on the ground with deadly strikes.
Winner by TKO (Strikes): Thomas Wade (2-0-0)

Fight Seven: Heavyweight Division: Lemmy "Ace Of Spades" Killmeister (0-0-0) vs. Mickey "The Raven" Reedus (1-1-0)
(The Fight)
Round 1:
The fight gets underway and Reedus avoids a couple of Takedowns and he manages to shoot in himself and get the takedown for himself. Reedus works Killmeister over on the ground getting into Side Control with ease and he is landing a couple of shots in there also which should help him score good points. The strikes to the head of Killmeister do a lot of damage though as a big cut starts to open up above his eye and blood starts gushing out of it. Reedus is content to work with strikes as Killmeister tries to transition to a better place but it's not working at all as Reedus is controlling the ground. But in the dying seconds of the round Killmeister manages to scramble away and both fighters are standing again as the round closes with the bell sounding. Mickey Reedus was the dominator on the ground this round as he opened up a big cut above the eye of Killmeister which will not help him during fighting or for the judge.
Round 2:
The new round starts as both fighters are avoiding each other's takedown's which makes for a silly showcase of shooting ability and takedown defense. Only in the second minute of the round Killmeister manages to shoot in for the takedown and actually get it. On the ground both fighters fight for position but it gets nowhere as the referee orders the two men to stand back up and try again. For the next couple of minutes the two fighters again try to go for takedowns and clinches which fails miserably for both fighters and causes the crowd to become very bored. Killmeister gets a clinch in the final minute but he can't pull guard and that is the end of the round as most of the crowd where away getting food or taking a piss, sorry guys but that round was shit... Seriously, get a better gameplan...
Round 3:
The final round gets underway and after a short struggle Reedus gets a clinch and he immediately goes for a takedown and he gets it. Reedus gets into the half guard as he throws a couple of strikes from the ground looking to work over Killmeister's cut some more. Killmeister tries a guillotine which just barely gets broken and Reedus throws a punch and goes for Full Mount which he gets! Reedus is thinking kill here and he is throwing a lot of strikes to the head of Killmeister and the cut gets opened some more and the Doctor is ordered into the cage to check the cut... And the doctor decides to stop the fight as Killmeister's cut is too bad to continue and Reedus is already celebrating with his corner as his entire crew makes sure to flash the logo of their sponsor for the camera.
Winner by TKO (Cut): Mickey Reedus (2-1-0)

Fight Six: Middleweight Division: Eric "T" Cartman (1-4-0) vs. Mickey Halliday (0-0-0)
(The Fight)
Round 1:
Fight six gets underway as both fighters show some love by touching gloves but they quickly get to business with Halliday hitting a beautiful combination on the head of Cartman. Halliday gets a takedown soon after and he is laying on Cartman trying to tire him out but the referee realises that quickly and stands them up. Halliday has no problem staying cautious as he hits some counter punches but fails to go on the aggressive side of things. A couple of clinches for Halliday in this round but Cartman breaks them up without much effort as Halliday continues to play the counter boxer in this fight which should score nicely but isn't very spectacular. The round ends with Halliday as the man with a plan, and Cartman pounding his head against the wall trying the same gameplan when it clearly failed.
Round 2:
The new round gets underway and the first thing Cartman tries is another takedown, and obviously enough it fails because Halliday is reading him like the morning paper. Lots of back and forth action in this round, and with that I mean that Halliday is throwing Cartman around the cage like a ragdoll with lots of counter punches and clinches as Cartman tries the same thing over and over again. The fight drops to the ground for a second before getting back up and Halliday continues to completely dominate this fight in his counter-punchey way. The rest of the round is more of the same, Halliday is having Cartman's number and Cartman can't do anything about it. With this round in the bag this fight is completely going Halliday's way and you can expect him to continue this domination in the last round.
Round 3:
The third and final round gets underway and Cartman comes out trying to swing instead of shoot, but it fails. Halliday clinches and tries to trip Cartman to the ground and the fight goes to the ground... Isn't Cartman supposed to be the guy shooting and Halliday punching? The fight gets standign quickly and Halliday looks to punch again and does so with good efficiency, maybe he gets a stuffed animal when he can hit Cartman enough? Anyways Halliday continues to circle Cartman, I must say Cartman is doing his best to avoid most punches thrown at him but sadly enough he isn't doing enough himself to beat Halliday. In the final minute of the round the fight gets to the ground and Halliday gets into Full mount but nothing happens as the bell rings and the fight is over. The judges really don't need time to... well judge as they return and all three judges vote 30-27 in favour of Mickey Halliday who is more than happy at his domination over Cartman. Cartman on the other hand sees his record drop to 1-5 and must be wondering if he even has a place in this sport.
Winner by Unanimous Decision: Mickey Halliday (1-0-0)
